I am trying to get a state value as name on a picture entity card. Someone mentioned to use the config-template-card option.
type: 'custom:config-template-card'
variables:
- 'states[''sensor.trash_first_next_item''].state'
entities:
- sensor.trash_first_next_item
- sensor.trash_first_next_date
card:
type: 'custom:picture-entity'
entities:
- entity: sensor.trash_first_next_item
name: '${states[''sensor.trash_first_next_date''].state}'
state_image:
Geen: /local/afvalwijzer/geen.png
gft: /local/afvalwijzer/gft.png
papier: /local/afvalwijzer/papier.png
plastic: /local/afvalwijzer/plastic.png
restafval: /local/afvalwijzer/grijs.png
With the config above I get the error:
Custom element doesn’t exist: picture-entity.
Is it possible to the custom-config-template with the custom-config-template addon?

It’s not a custom card, so you have to use the hui card trick:
type: 'custom:config-template-card'
variables:
- 'states[''sensor.trash_first_next_item''].state'
entities:
- sensor.trash_first_next_item
- sensor.trash_first_next_date
card:
type: 'custom:hui-picture-entity'
entities:
- entity: sensor.trash_first_next_item
name: '${states[''sensor.trash_first_next_date''].state}'
state_image:
Geen: /local/afvalwijzer/geen.png
gft: /local/afvalwijzer/gft.png
papier: /local/afvalwijzer/papier.png
plastic: /local/afvalwijzer/plastic.png
restafval: /local/afvalwijzer/grijs.png
However, since v0.107 this also requires you to preload the card:
thank you for the options I tried it but didnt work. Now the error is:
Custom element doesn’t exist: hui-picture-entity.
I a running 0.107.5

It should be:
card:
type: 'custom:hui-picture-entity-card'
And you will have to preload it as mentioned.
